Blacksmith Blacksmiths Wood Cut
31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 31x27 inches (787x685mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "The Blacksmith's Forge: A 17th Century Industry" This woodcut print, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to the bustling world of a 17th century blacksmith's workshop. The image, titled "C17 Blacksmith," showcases the daily life and labor of two skilled blacksmiths at work. In the foreground, the blacksmiths are intently focused on their tasks. The one on the left hammers away at a red-hot piece of iron, shaping it with precision and determination. His companion, on the right, tends to the anvil, ensuring that the hammer blows are evenly distributed and the metal is properly shaped. Their faces are etched with concentration and the sweat of their brow glistens in the dimly lit workshop. Behind them, the heart of their craft is on full display: a roaring furnace, its flames casting an orange glow over the scene. The heat from the forge radiates outwards, creating an atmosphere of industry and productivity. The blacksmiths' tools, scattered around the workshop, are a testament to their dedication and the importance of their craft in this historical era. The woodcut's intricate details bring the scene to life, from the textured surface of the anvil to the individual hammers and tongs. This image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily life and work of 17th century blacksmiths and the vital role they played in shaping the world around them. This print is not only a beautiful work of art but also an invaluable historical document, offering insight into the industrial processes and daily life of the past. It serves as a reminder of the ingenuity and resilience of those who came before us and the rich history that continues to inspire us today.
